i've got a particularly busy and important week, so i'll be taking a little break from the dash dot until things calm down. i've just gotta finish my thesis, write a bunch, defend the bejeezus out of that thesis, and then graduate. piece of cake.

so, until then i'm probably wearing something like this. they won't let me near any saws if i'm wearing a skirt, so it's going to be jeans and closed-toed shoes for the duration.

in the meantime, you should check out better in sepia and the other emily, both blogs are written by amazing girls who have the same degree that i'm working on.

i'm starting to realize that i'm on a mission to show that remixing can make pieces take on a whole cast of characters instead of being typecast into the same outfit over and over. my "previously on" posts are meant to show all the different ways that i wear certain things.

remixed chambray like whoa

4. outside the realm of fashion who/what inspires you?

i get color inspiration from all sorts of places--books, posters, color wheel assignments from the graphic design class i'm in this semester. adobe kuler is also kinda amazing.

5. and since Idol is ending… which songs inspire you?

i'm not an idol fan, but i do like to listen to music in the morning when i'm picking out my outfit. lately it's been a lot of the Xx, broken social scene, and faded paper figures.
